My favorite posts of 2011

Everyone is doing a wrap up and going through the archives for old posts for this week has made me nostalgic. I wish I had lots of pictures to accompany these, but alas, I do not. But here, in no very particular order are my favorite posts of 2011.

It seems like every time you turn around a mom writer is getting a book deal. Personally, I think this is great, but I've seen quite a bit of negativity regarding moms who are writers online lately. From the dismissive "just another Stephenie Meyer" comments...

I went back and read "On moms and writing." Loved it. It drives me crazy when people downplay the magnitude of being a stay at home mom in the first place. That's one full time and beyond job. To brush off being a stay at home mom writer is ignoring two monumental undertakings. Hooray for writer moms! Someone has to break up the lightsaber battles and then write an equally exciting conflict scene.
